Prolonging Battery Life

Extreme heat and cold will affect your battery’s performance. At temperatures above 80°F (27°C), the battery will discharge more quickly, and in colder temperatures, the battery won’t charge well. Therefore, it is recommended that the battery is used at room temperature, or between 68°F to 77°F (20°C to 25°C). The battery must be used at temperatures between 32°F to 104°F (0°C to 40°C).

It is not recommended that the battery is charged in temperatures above 104°F (40°C), and the battery capacity may be permanently damaged if you use your battery in temperatures higher than 140°F (60°C). You may damage the battery even more if you charge the device in these temperatures. You may find that using the battery in a very cold environment decreases the battery capacity. Unlike the effects of a hot environment, this is a temporary condition. Once warmed, the battery will return to its previous capacity.

Charging myPower ALL Plus

myPower ALL Plus will charge in four hours when completely empty. The green Charge indicator will turn on after the battery is 80% charged. Therefore, you should view the actual battery capacity before disconnecting the power adapter to stop charging. (Before using myPower ALL Plus for the first time,

you must charge the device for four hours.)

1.Plug the power adapter into the DC IN jack on the end of myPower ALL Plus.

2.Plug the power adapter into a wall outlet. The red Charge indicator will turn on to indicate the battery is charging and is less than 80% charged.

3.When the green Charge indicator turns on, and with the Power switch set to OFF, or with the Power switch set to ON and the device connected, press the voltage selector to view the battery capacity. If the capacity does not indicate full (all blue LEDs on), continue to charge the battery until the battery capacity indicates full. (For additional information, see “View myPower ALL Plus Battery Capacity”.)

NOTE: myPower ALL Plus will automatically shut down the power input when fully charged, so you can charge it overnight.
